To Lester's Family, My father, William "Harlen" Howie used to work with Les for many yrs. My Dad would come home nearly every night and talk about Les. He really liked Les and thought a great deal of him. My Dad has been gone for nearly 23 yrs but would want me to send my sympathy to each of you. You all are in my thoughts and prayers and Les will always be fondly remembered. May God wrap his comforting arms around the family and all of his friends.

Tim & Family,I'm sorry for your loss. He was an unforgettable person. Your family & staff are in my prayers.

Tim, Debbie, Barb, your Mom, and all your families - We just learned of your Dad's passing, from my Mom, and are sorry to hear of it. We have many good memories: My Mom even remembers your Dad checking the ice on the pond before she went skating there one time! You are all in our family's prayers.
